Honda set for CSKA finale ahead of AC Milan move

Keisuke Honda will make his final appearance for CSKA Moscow on Tuesday night.

The 27-year old Japanese playmaker is set to join AC Milan when the January transfer window opens but will play one last time for the Russians in their Champions League group stage fixture with Viktoria Plzen.

CSKA need to avoid defeat to the Czechs in order to finish third in Group D which would ensure them a berth in the Europa League Round of 32.

During his time in Moscow, former Nagoya Grampus and VVV-Venlo ace Honda has made 94 Russian Premier League appearances for 20 goals and 20 Champions League appearances for five goals for a total of 28 goals in 126 outings in all competitions.
